About Tendril & Thistle

(formerly Vintage Revival Design Co.)

Tendril & Thistle is a thoughtful, design-driven brand rooted in layered sensory experience.

What began as Vintage Revival Design Co, a cozy corner for painted furniture, vintage finds, and DIY workshops, has gently evolved. Over time, my focus shifted from restoring objects to shaping environments and experiences.

I no longer simply wanted to help people decorate their homes. I wanted to design elements that influence how a space feels, and how we move within it.

I created Tendril & Thistle from my own experience, refining what I value, what I reach for daily, and what truly supports me in this stage of life.

So Tendril & Thistle was born.

Today, each seasonal collection is artist-designed and blend-centered, built around scent, texture, and thoughtful detail. These are not simply products. They are layered sensory invitations created to integrate seamlessly into everyday living.

Essential oil rollers and mists structured around intentional blends. Formulations designed with texture and atmosphere in mind. Hand-painted papers and printed elements that add depth and visual rhythm.

Every element is considered. Every blend has a purpose. Every collection is cohesive.

Rooted in Restoration

My love for restoration began beside my grandmother. She was resourceful, generous, and walked so fast I could barely keep up. She taught me to see potential in the worn, purpose in the cast aside, and beauty in the overlooked.

That lens still guides my work. Not in salvaging furniture now, but in shaping thoughtful environments.

As a military spouse, I carried that sensibility through seasons of constant change. I learned how scent, light, and simple material choices could transform unfamiliar spaces into grounded ones.

That understanding now lives inside every Tendril & Thistle collection.

The Invitations

Each collection is organized around five steady touchstones: Begin | Pause | Tend | Rest | Create.

They are not categories. They are rhythms.

They return season after season in new and familiar forms. Always cohesive. Always intentional. Always centered around carefully constructed blends.

Tendril & Thistle exists at the intersection of scent, texture, and thoughtful design.

It is not about excess.
It is not about escape.
It is about layering the everyday with intention.

Created from lived experience and guided by an artist’s eye, this is an evolving body of work.

And I am grateful you are here.
